Not to mention whether Mrs. Jing is in the Red Rain World, even if she is, finding someone in such a huge Red Rain World is like looking for a needle in a haystack.
Li Nanke didn't have that spare time.
After a while, Shangguan Guan came with several members of the Qinglong tribe to investigate.
The result is naturally no gain.
When such a case occurs, the family members of the missing persons should have been interviewed in written form. However, due to Jing Benhai's status, except for Lan Minsheng who took advantage of his connections to ask a few questions, no one else dared to follow the standard procedure.
In the end, only a few members were left to continue searching. Li Nanke, Shangguan Guan and others returned to the Night Patrol Department first.
"Were you missing during the earthquake?"
Back at the Night Patrol Department, Shangguan Guan called Li Nanke alone into the study room where he worked and asked.
"The eldest princess and I are together, and we both entered the world of Red Rain."
Li Nanke didn't hide anything.
"Sure enough, it's as I guessed." Shangguan Guan said, "I also entered the world of Red Rain, but I didn't encounter an attack. I was just trapped in a black mist. After about a stick of incense, I returned to reality.
.”
Li Nanke was thoughtful.
It seems that everyone encounters something different when entering the world of Red Rain.
Li Nanke motioned to the other party to close the doors and windows, and deliberately lowered his voice and asked: "What do you think caused this earthquake?"
"have no idea."
"Oh, you are the most loyal dog of the Supreme Emperor, don't you know that?"
Li Nanke mocked the other party unceremoniously.
Shangguan Guan frowned and laughed at himself, "You already call me a dog, how much do I know? Maybe it has something to do with the Supreme Emperor, or maybe it's the commotion in the underworld."
Li Nanke crossed his arms on his chest, walked back and forth in the room for a while, and said:
"There are many people in the entire imperial city who have taken Red Rain. All of these people may have been pulled into the Red Rain world. Therefore, some people are bound to learn about the existence of the Red Rain world. What do you think the court will do next?
?”
"have no idea."
Shangguan Guan still gave a useless answer.
Seeing Li Nanke staring at him, Shangguan Guan spread his hands and said helplessly: "Then what do you think we should do? We definitely can't hide it, we can only pretend that nothing happened."
"Aren't you going to arrest these people who have taken Red Rain? This earthquake is like a screening. Once the court investigates seriously, those who have disappeared will not be able to escape."
Li Nanke gave suggestions.
Hearing this, Shangguan Guan snorted, "You are too naive. If you want to arrest us now, the entire imperial city will be in chaos. Not to mention how many people have taken Red Rain, including our Night Patrol Department
, as well as many officials in the imperial court.
How do you arrest him? In what name do you arrest him? The tighter you arrest him, the faster the rumors will spread. By then, not to mention the imperial city, the whole world will know about it."
Li Nanke opened his mouth and remained silent.
Shangguan Guan sat on a chair and sighed, "A storm is coming. This earthquake is not a bad thing. At least the people can be mentally prepared in advance."
Li Nanke's heart moved, "Do you think Hong Yu is really coming?"
"It's right to make final plans."
Shangguan Guan smiled bitterly and said, "Anyway, when I wake up every morning, I look at the sky first, just because I'm afraid that one day red raindrops will fall."
Li Nanke looked at the other party's pessimistic expression and felt very uncomfortable.
Although he had been mentally prepared, the moment he really felt the red rain coming, he couldn't help but feel a sense of sadness and despair in his heart.
There is a sense of ridicule and helplessness that I have been busy for a long time, but it is just a waste of time.
Shangguan Guan said quietly: "Some people choose to live in dreams, some choose to enjoy the present, some are blind to the arrangements of fate, and some are struggling like insects in a cobweb... Li Nanke, stop running around to investigate.
There’s not enough time.”
Li Nanke tried his best to dissipate the anxiety in his heart and asked calmly: "Then why did the Supreme Emperor make these unnecessary arrangements? He wanted to disband the Night Patrol Department, but now that the red rain is coming, isn't it a useless effort?"
"The Emperor will never do anything that wastes his time."
Shangguan Guan said, "He knows more than me and can see further than we can. Everything he does has his own reason, whether it is for himself or for the whole world."
Li Nanke laughed.
Although he didn't know what he was laughing at, it might be Shangguan Guan's words "maybe for the whole world".
"Time... is still enough."
Li Nanke dropped these words and left the room.
When I got home in the afternoon, I found that my wife and Ye Yaoyao were not there, only He Xinyue and my wife.
He Xinyue was playing with Sister Goose in her arms.
Mistress Gu Ying was busy cooking in the kitchen.
"Were you okay when the earthquake happened today?" Li Nanke walked into the kitchen and asked.
Gu Ying shook her head blankly, "No, what's wrong? What happened?"
It seems that the wife has never taken Hongyu.
"It's okay. Little Rabbit and I are going to the Red Rain World. You can just keep it while you prepare the food. You don't have to wait for us."
Li Nanke said hello in advance.
"Do you need me to go with you?"
"No need, that place is very dangerous. Little Rabbit and I are both capable of protecting ourselves, so don't worry."
"Then be careful."
"knew."
Seeing the worried look on the woman's face, Li Nanke felt warm in his heart, patted the other woman's shoulder and said, "When I become more powerful, I will take you to have a try."
"good."
Gu Ying blushed and lowered her head slightly.
In order to prevent being disturbed by He Xinyue, Sister Goose and others, Li Nanke arranged for Leng Xinnan to guard the door, and then brought Meng Xiaotu into the room.
The two of them lay on the bed and entered the world of Red Rain together when they were ready.
…
"Alas, the Empress Dowager is not here again."
Looking at the empty wedding room, Meng Xiaotu looked disappointed.
Especially when I saw that there was no food on the table.
Remembering the first time she met the Empress Dowager, who gave her a lot of weird delicacies, Meng Xiaotu's feeling of disappointment became even heavier.
Li Nanke went to the window and looked outside. Seeing that there was no red rain outside, he opened the door.
But as the door opened, a faint fishy smell suddenly came in.
Li Nanke quickly covered his nose.
"What does it smell like?"
Meng Xiaotu also quickly covered her mouth and nose, her cute little face looking like a bitter gourd.
This fishy smell is not the bloody smell, it is similar to the smell you smell at the beach all year round.
When the smell faded and he could get used to it, Li Nanke walked out of the wedding room, saw wisps of black mist floating in the sky, and murmured: "Sure enough, there is a problem here in Hongyu World."
"These black mist... seem to lead to a direction."
Meng Xiaotu still pinched her nose and observed the black mist floating in the sky. Because her nose was pinched, her voice was particularly funny, with a bit of a clip accent.
"Follow the direction of the black mist and look."
